Built on HOUSTON’s longstanding knowledge of military wear, this derivative line was launched in fall 2014. It reinterprets staples such as the MA-1, M-65, B-15, and N-3B with slimmer silhouettes, lighter construction, and traditionally styled linings, and is made using Japanese materials and trims, with production centered at its own factory. While HOUSTON man covers a broad range of staples and everyday American casual wear, GOLD is positioned within the group as a more specialized military offering focused on domestic production, design specifications, and an urban look.
